Salle Pierre-Mercure

Event title: “Songs of Wisdom”

The Ensemble: The Naghash Ensemble combines the earthy spirituality of Armenian folk song, new classical music, contemporary post-minimalism, and the energy of jazz and rock. Three brilliant female vocalists and some of Armenia’s finest instrumentalists on duduk, oud, dhol, and piano play new music based on sacred texts by the medieval Armenian poet and priest, Mkrtich Naghash.

Written by Armenian-American composer John Hodian, The Naghash Ensemble’s “Songs of Exile” is a profound meditation on man's relationship to God from the perspective of a monk forced to live in exile for many years.

Testimonials:
“… a moment of grace and meditation’’ — by Rolling Stone
“The songs are unmistakably Armenian, but out of this world.” — Armenisch-Deutsche Korrespondenz
‘’The spiritual beauty of the music provokes a mix of joy and meditation’’ — French Trans Musicales
